About

The project promotes early STEM education in Luxembourg through teacher professional development targeting children aged 4-6.
We will develop a teacher education module for further dissemination and create curricular program for teaching STEM in Cycle 1 that is locally contextualized (locally developed, internationally relevant). Online open-source pedagogical resources will be available to everyone worldwide. We will also disseminate of teachers’ experiences: Teachers supporting teachers – the direction to sustained instructional change.
